Version    Loads/No
0.5.3.1    Boots 100% and can install to aic7870 hd
0.6.2      Bootable, then gets hung probing the aic7xxx
0.7.1       Boots to cd, runs part of install, then gets hung  
                probing aic7xxx. activity light strobes at 5 second
                intervals btwn cd and scsi hd
                Couple times got hptraid: Error reading
                superblock
                failsafe worked but had no use that I saw.  
                expert worked well

pulled another copy from another archive(belnet.be)
2nd copy of 0.7.1  did the same
 
0.9.0.1    Sees disc bootable but does not mount

As a sanity check, just booted to 0.5.3.1 and everything that worked before still works...
